Shoaib Akhtar - 161.3 kph vs England (World Cup 2003) However beware of accepting simple out-of-bowlers-hand radar measured speeds to settle this question.
Speeds given for Shoab Akhtar/Brett Lee and others in more modern times are speeds out of the bowlers hand as measured from the batsman's end (by radar gun). One metre after delivery a ball has decreased speed by around 0.97 km/hr.
Radar measured speeds are not particularly accurate. This is due to the fact (1) the ball is not travelling directly at the radar, (2) is slowing through the air, and (3) rotating in the air (presenting different seam profile).

Pakistan's Shoaib Akhtar is the only bowler ever to bowl over 100mph and that makes him the fastest Bowling ever. But it would be interesting to consider this... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Thomson

Shoaib Akhtar (Pakistan) is the fastest bowler ever in cricket history
shahid afridi
The fastest recorded ball in the history of the World Cup was bowled by Pakistani batsman Shaoib Akhtar, who bowled the last ball of his second over against England, a maiden bowled towards England batsman Nick Knight, faster than any other ball in Test history. His recorded speeds of delivery, in kilometres per hour, were as follows: Ball 1: 153.3 kilometres per hour Ball 2: 158.4 kilometres per hour Ball 3: 158.5 kilometres per hour Ball 4: 157.4 kilometres per hour Ball 5: 159.5 kilometres per hour Ball 6: 161.3 kilometres per hour Shaoib had previously recorded a bowl of 161 kilometres per hour, in April 2010, but this was generally dismissed as equipment error.
